SMOLENSK NPP
Location: near the city of Desnogorsk (Smolensk region)
Reactor type: RBMK-1000
Number of power units: 3
Smolensk NPP is the city-forming leading enterprise of the region, the largest in the fuel and energy balance of the region. Annually, the station produces an average of 20 billion kWh of electricity, which is more than 75% of the total amount of electricity generated by the energy enterprises of the Smolensk region. The SPP operates three power units with RBMK-1000 reactors. The first stage belongs to the second generation of nuclear power plants with RBMK-1000 reactors, the second - to the third.
IN 2000 Smolensk NPP took 1st place in the All-Russian competition "Russian Organization of High Social Efficiency".In 2007, the nuclear power plant was the first among Russian NPPs to receive a certificate of compliance of the quality management system with the international standard ISO 9001.received a certificate of conformity of the environmental management system of the plant with the requirements of the international standard ISO 14001. In the same year, the Smolensk NPP was recognized as the best plant in Russia in the direction of "Physical Protection".

IN 2011
Smolensk NPP became the winner in the competition "The Best NPP of Russia" based on the results of 2010 and was recognized as the best NPP in terms of safety culture. As part of the implementation of the program to extend the life of the Smolensk NPP, a major overhaul and modernization of power unit No. 1 was carried out.the Certificate of acceptance into operation of the 1st launch complex of KP RAO was signed. In addition, Mr.A group of highly qualified experts in the field of nuclear safety of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) conducted an OSART mission at the Smolensk NPP to verify the compliance of the plant's safe operation with international standards. Based on the results of the audit, a positive assessment was given and a number of positive practices recommended for implementation at nuclear power plants of the world were noted: high operational reliability of power units, professional training of personnel, and others.
IN 2013 SNPP became the owner of the international environmental certificate and the golden sign "International Ecologists Initiative 100% eco quality", confirming the environmental friendliness of the enterprise. In the same month, Smolensk NPP was awarded the main prize of international ecologists "Global Eco Brand" in the nomination "Leader of Socially and Environmentally Responsible Business".
IN 2016 Smolensk NPP was included in the number of exemplary RPS enterprises in the industry and received the status of "Enterprise - RPS Leader". As well asfor reliability and safety, was recognized as the leader in the corporate competition "The Best NPP in Russia in terms of safety culture"; Smolensk NPP "Best NPP in Russia" according to the results of the 2015 traditional industry competition. In the same year bAn important decision was made - Rostekhnadzor issued licenses, and at the government level a corresponding order was issued to locate two VVER-TOI power units in the Smolensk region, replacing the capacities of existing units that are to be decommissioned.
In 2017, Smolensk NPP was recognized as an environmentally exemplary organization by Rosenergoatom Concern JSC, becoming the winner of the All-Russian competition "Health and Safety", held with the support of the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation in two categories at once: "Development and implementation of highly efficient labor protection management systems ” and “Development of measuring instruments, methods, techniques and technologies for assessing working conditions”.
The distance to the satellite city (Desnogorsk) is 3 km, to the regional center (Smolensk) - 150 km.
OPERATING POWER UNITS OF SMOLENSK NPP
| POWER UNIT NUMBER | TYPE OF REACTOR | INSTALLED CAPACITY, M W | LAUNCH DATE |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | RBMK-1000 | 1000 | 09.12.1982 |
| 2 | RBMK-1000 | 1000 | 31.05.1985 |

| Total installed capacity 3000 MW |
Smolensk AS is located near the western border of Russia, in the Smolensk region. The nearest regional centers: Smolensk - 150 km, Bryansk - 180 km, Moscow - 350 km. Smolensk NPP operates three power units with RBMK-1000 reactors. The project provided for the construction of two phases, two blocks with common auxiliary facilities and systems in each, but due to the termination of the construction of the fourth power unit in 1986, the second phase remained unfinished. The first stage of the Smolensk NPP belongs to the second generation of nuclear power plants with RBMK-1000 reactors, the second stage - to the third. Graphite serves as a neutron moderator in reactors of this type, and water is used as a coolant. All power units are equipped with accident localization systems, which exclude the release of radioactive substances into environment even in the most severe accidents envisaged by the project, associated with a complete rupture of the pipelines of the cooling circuit of the reactor of maximum diameter. All equipment of the cooling circuit is located in sealed reinforced concrete boxes that can withstand pressure up to 4.5 kgf/cm2. For steam condensation in emergency conditions, the accident localization system includes a pool - a bubbler located under the reactor, with a water reserve of about 3000 m3. Special systems ensure reliable heat removal from the reactor even in the event of a complete loss of power supply by the station, taking into account possible equipment failures. For the needs of technical water supply on the Desna River, an artificial reservoir with an area of 42 km was created, to provide the population with economic and drinking water groundwater is used.
The heat supply of the industrial site and the city in normal mode is provided from any power unit through a special intermediate circuit, which excludes the ingress of activated substances into the heating network in case of damage to the equipment. When all three units are stopped, the start-up boiler room is switched on. Power units with RBMK-1000 single-loop reactors. This means that the steam for the turbines is generated directly from the water that cools the reactor. Each power unit includes: one reactor with a thermal power of 3200 MW and two turbogenerators with an electric power of 500 MW each. Turbine generators are installed in the turbine hall, common for all three units, about 600 m long, each reactor is located in a separate building. The station operates only in the basic mode, its load does not depend on changes in the needs of the power system. In 1999, Smolensk NPP generated 19,809 million kWh of electrical energy, against the plan of 18,883 million kWh of electrical energy.
Desnogorsk is a city built for NPP maintenance personnel on the banks of a picturesque artificial reservoir created on the Desna River. It is located 3 km from the nuclear power plant. The population of the city is about 40 thousand people. The city is built up with nine and sixteen-story houses. The infrastructure of Desnogorsk is typical for most modern Russian cities. Desnogorsk residents are provided with medical facilities, telephone communications, cable and satellite television, transport, trade and consumer services. In addition to nuclear power plants and auxiliary industries, there are no other industrial enterprises in the city.
Safety performance
Protection against the ingress of radioactive substances into the environment is built on the principle of successive barriers, the state of which is under constant control. The first barrier is the shell of the TVEL (fuel element). If its tightness is violated, gaseous fission products of uranium enter the water of the multiple forced circulation circuit, increasing its radioactivity. To determine defective cassettes, a system for monitoring the tightness of the shells is provided, the principle of operation of which is based on measuring the radiation of the steam-water mixture at the outlet of each channel. In the event of a leaky cassette, the latter is removed from the reactor and a new one is installed in its place. The second barrier is the technological channels and equipment of the KMPC (multiple forced circulation circuit). The state of the technological channels is controlled by the composition of the nitrogen-helium mixture pumped through the reactor space through the gaps between the graphite columns and channels. The nitrogen-helium mixture has a very low heat capacity, and despite the fact that its temperature at the outlet of the reactor is quite high, it cools down quickly. If the density of the process channel is disturbed, steam enters the nitrogen-helium mixture, causing a sharp increase in its heat capacity. The mixture does not have time to cool down, its temperature rises after the reactor. The system for monitoring the integrity of technological channels allows you to accurately determine the defective channel by changing the temperature of the nitrogen-helium mixture. In addition, it provides group (80 channels per group) control of the mixture humidity at the outlet of the reactor. The RBMK design makes it possible to replace a defective channel during a reactor shutdown. The KMPTS equipment is located in sealed (strongly tight) boxes. Measurement of temperature, pressure and aerosol activity in them makes it possible to detect even minor leaks from the circuit. The third barrier is the reinforced concrete walls of the KMPC equipment rooms. The temperature regime of building structures is created by a special cooling system. The concrete temperature is constantly monitored and recorded. The collection and processing of data on the technological parameters of the power unit with the issuance of information to operators is carried out by the Skala centralized control system - a powerful computer complex. In addition to directly measured parameters - flow rates, temperatures, pressures, levels - the system also provides information on the calculated ones (for example, the power of fuel cartridges in the technological channels, the steam content at the outlet of the channels, the numbers of channels of maximum or minimum power). When the main parameters deviate beyond the established limits, a light and sound alarm is issued indicating a specific parameter. To measure the distribution of energy release over the volume of the core, a system of physical control of the distribution of energy release (SPKRE) is provided. The radial distribution is controlled by 130 sensors installed in the hollow central rods of the fuel cartridges, the height distribution is controlled by 12 sensors installed in special channels included in the cooling circuit of the control and protection rods.
Last week I took a trip to a place I never dreamed of before. For those who often write about large industrial facilities, getting to an operating nuclear power plant is already a holiday. For me, this is a double celebration! For the first time I visited a large and strategically important facility.
Smolensk NPP is located in Desnogorsk. This city is located approximately in the middle between Smolensk and Bryansk, not far from Roslavl.
1. First, some basic information. 
2. There are 10 nuclear power plants in Russia. In total, they generate 16% of the electricity in the country. 
3. Smolensk NPP was put into operation in 1982. In the future, Solenskaya NPP-2 will be built to gradually decommission the capacities of NPP-1. 
4. In order not to rewrite the pictures, I immediately designate the scheme of operation of the SAES. 
5. And now we are moving to the territory of the nuclear power plant. 
6. The cooling pond is teeming with fish. Its quantity is huge because of the temperature. It's consistently warmer here. Specialists from Moscow specially come to control the amount of fish! 
6. Also, algae actively live and multiply here. 
7. At the entrance we are met by a large mosaic with Vladimir Ilyich. 
8. Is it worth talking about safety at nuclear power plants? Every person in their right mind wants to live. Numerous posters in workplaces, corridors and intermediate rooms are bright, clear and sometimes very motivating. 
9. Passage to the territory for the guest only with equipment that is declared in advance. Dressing completely in white clothes. In general, I was pleasantly surprised that it was possible to shoot a lot. In any case, everything cannot be shown, but in my little experience there were already places where there were much more prohibitions. 
10. Unfortunately, my stupidity sometimes goes beyond. I managed to forget to remove the polarizing filter for screen shots. So they came out darker than the real one. 
11. The NPP control system is a huge shield with a bunch of buttons and levers. 
12. To shoot it completely you need to use a 360 camera or ask everyone to step out of the frame and shoot from the very corner. 
13. Workplace. 
14. If you don't know what it is, you don't represent a nuclear power plant device. These buttons are responsible for controlling the rods - the basis of the reactor. 
15. And three red levers nearby - shutdown of all three reactors. I hope that they will not need to be used in extreme circumstances or for prevention. 
16.
17. Red lines on the floor - a place where it is dangerous to go. Just in case. 
18. Ahead is the most important, most interesting and most desired place by all guests of the nuclear power plant. 
19. The central hall, in which the base of the entire station is located - the power unit. We are in one of three such. 
20. Before us is the reactor itself. His upper part called a plateau. The people (I used to love games about Chernobyl) often called the lid, the surface. Internally, the device resembles a large bunch of pencils. Remember in your school years there were heaps of unsharpened pencils tightened with an elastic band? Here is something similar 
21. Under the cells are fuel assemblies in the form of tubes with uranium pellets. 
22. To be honest, it was scary to enter the plateau for the first time. It would seem that I can imagine what is under me, others have already gone, but I'm scared. Then he decided anyway. Fine. Feelings are special. I even made a rare photo for myself "at the feet". 
23. The height of the room is designed for a calm rise of each part of the structure. And the yellow "pipe" in the middle of the photo will soon generate electricity. 
24. As you can see, the design consists of ordinary tubes, inside which are uranium tablets. Now, until they are lowered into the reactor, they do not pose a danger. 
25. In order to carry out work on the replacement of parts in the hall there is a special machine. 
26. This is a crane that moves throughout the area and drags structural elements. Can be controlled both automatically and manually. 
27. Workplace. 
28. Waste material remains here for 1.5 years. 
29. General form the design is impressive. While I was in this hall, I was reached with an interview. They pulled the first sensations out of me. Then it really seemed to me that everything is compact here. yes, I understand that large object high power with huge weight and large scale. But for some reason, my distorted idea initially expected that everything here would be not just big, but huge. 
30. And of course everything is under control. 
32.
33. And this is the turbine hall. The place where electricity appears. 
34. This layered design generates electrical energy from steam by moving the blades in a turbine at a speed of 3,000 revolutions per minute. 
35. All characteristics. 
36. The rumble standing here is a little misleading. 
37. It may surprise you, but it's not here a large number of people. Those who are - in soundproof rooms. Automation works flawlessly and protects the system in case of emergency. 
38.
39. To study everything that is in this picture, I, a humanist, will need to spend a year. 
40.
41.
42.
43. Part of the nuclear power plant capacity goes to serve the city. 
44. And in the end, let's take a short look at the laboratory of external radiation monitoring. It is no longer at the nuclear power plant, but in the city. 
45. So that you understand the level of radiation in the vicinity of the station, I post the table in full. For comparison, in St. Petersburg on the embankments, the indicator from the second column is 0.45, and in Moscow in places 0.60. 
46. Numerous tests are still being carried out here of everything that is possible. 
47. But I think that it is wrong to rewrite Wikipedia, and it is she who will tell you better about the meaning and purpose of devices. 
My gratitude to the organizers of the blog tour, the NPP staff and the security service! I didn't expect to be able to photograph everything that seems interesting!
Thanks for attention! Stay in touch!
August 14, 2013 was a new milestone in the history of nuclear energy for the Smolensk region. It was on this day that the first exploration well for the future was drilled near the village of Bogdanovo in the Roslavl district, the construction of which the residents of the region have been talking about in recent years.
The order to start work on the construction of the second Smolensk nuclear power plant was the general director of the corporation "ROSATOM" Sergey Kiriyenko. The site of the proposed construction of the station is located seven kilometers from the current Smolensk nuclear power plant.
Double edged stick
Residents of the Smolensk region, to be honest, are still wary of new construction, as well as the fact that the power units of the current nuclear power plant are already exhausting their resources. This, of course, cannot but disturb the population; the so-called "double-edged sword" is emerging. Recall that also in December 2012 Rostekhnadzor of Russia issued a license to extend the life of power unit No. 1 with the declared technical parameters until December 25, 2022.
In order to work beyond the stipulated time, this power unit was reconstructed and modernized. And in 2011, it was carefully examined by IAEA experts, who, in turn, confirmed its operational safety. At the moment, of the three power units of the Smolensk NPP, power units No. 1, with an extended service life, and No. 3, whose service life expires in 2020, are in operation. Power unit No. 2 is under scheduled overhaul. True, there are no comments on the operation of the equipment.
Without magic
It should be noted that other specific sites for the construction of Smolensk NPP-2 are also being considered at this stage. Among them: Kholmets in the Roslavl region and Podmostki in the Pochinkovsky region. The construction of the new nuclear power plant itself should begin in three years, in 2016. Before this period, it is just necessary to carry out both survey and all design work.
The launch of the first power unit of Smolensk NPP-2 is scheduled for 2022. “We have been waiting for this event for a long time. The drilling of the first exploration well is in fact the first peg on the site where Smolensk NPP-2 will be located,” the director of the nuclear power plant Andrey Petrov, employees of the public information center of Smolensk NPP, convey the words.
In turn, as Evgeny Romanov, General Director of Rosenergoatom Concern OJSC, noted during his visit to the Smolensk NPP, there should certainly be a NPP-2, but the construction itself “does not begin by magic”. “As three units of the Smolensk NPP are retired, we must introduce an adequate amount of replacement capacities,” the general director noted then. - All work of the preparatory period must be carried out. Therefore, by the time we decide that construction should start, we should be in high readiness so that we can do it almost instantly.”
By the way
The Smolensk region itself is “tied” to the construction of NPP-2 on its territory, because even now the operating nuclear power plant accounts for about 80 percent of the installed capacity of all power plants in our region. In addition, it is one of the main sources of tax revenues for the budget revenues of the Smolensk region and Desnogorsk itself.
NPP comment
Ivan Navnychko, Deputy Manager of the Desnogorsk design and survey branch of JSC Atomenergoproekt:
“The construction of the Smolensk NPP-2 is necessary so that over time it will replace the existing nuclear power plant. After all, the first has already worked out its resource, but, as you know, the necessary license was obtained to extend its service life. The same applies to the other two power units of the nuclear power plant.
At this stage, work on the Smolensk NPP-2 is reduced to finally deciding on the location of the future facility. Of all the points under consideration, Pyatidvorok is the most suitable, since, so to speak, the place here is drier and its location is most convenient - only seven kilometers from the current nuclear power plant. At subsequent stages, the next issues will be resolved, including those related to the project of the station. For now we are talking about the VVER-TOI project, as well as at the Novovoronezh NPP. But, apparently, it will be its improved version.
For the Smolensk region as a whole, the construction of the Smolensk NPP-2 is an important project. Firstly, these are new jobs for people, because it is no secret that now many local residents are leaving Desnogorsk and nearby settlements in search of earnings in the same Moscow. It's tax deductions."
"I'm not saying that everything will explode, but how will it work..."
Andrey Ozharovsky, engineer-physicist, expert of the ecological association "Bellona":
“It is clear that we need to prepare and do something, because the power units of the Smolensk NPP are already reaching their 30-year expected service life. I think it is wrong that other options were not analyzed, and the construction of NPP-2 was proposed as a non-alternative project.
Indeed, in the same Europe, a number of countries have already abandoned nuclear energy. I was wondering when the public hearings on this project and I was told that it should be in September. Public hearings are good, but not when it turns out that the decision has essentially already been made. Citizens should receive all necessary information.
The second thing that is interesting in this story is what will actually be built. There is an option that this is VVER-1200, which was abandoned at the Kaliningrad NPP at one time. In the Smolensk region, I think, they will offer an even more interesting option, the so-called VVER-TOI. I can say that neither one nor the second project has been implemented in practice before and they did not exist in nature. As an engineer, I can't help but worry about how this will all work. It turns out that the Smolensk region will become a kind of testing ground for an untested project in practice. I'm not saying that everything will explode, but it's not clear how it will work and whether it will be.
Two hands for!
Vladimir Tsyganok, Associate Professor, Department of Ecology, Smolensky state university, Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, specialist in man-made systems and environmental risks, expert of the Federal Industrial Safety Expertise System:
“The construction of a new nuclear power plant will only benefit the Smolensk region: more energy will be sold - more deductions will go to the budget, new jobs will appear. The impact on the environment is only thermal. So I - with both hands "for"!
No deviation from normal radiation background not observed in the Smolensk region. There is not a single fact that would indicate some kind of radiation hazard. In addition to rumors and speculation of the townsfolk. Roshydromet official data are published regularly and have a high level of reliability. , and after that they rechecked everything again, all approaches to security, made sure that everything was fine, but also tightened control even more. The monitoring system in the observation zone around the NPP continuously forms a data stream and sends it not only to the plant itself, but also to Rosatom and the IAEA - online, to the international level. Nobody is hiding anything, and there is nothing to be afraid of.
In fact, in the Smolensk region, in the foreground, completely different environmental problems- the problem of domestic waste disposal and deterioration of water treatment facilities. And the construction of a nuclear power plant is better to build five nuclear power plants in the region than one waste incineration plant. I can say this with complete, 100% certainty and knowledge of the matter.
The only one real risk associated with a nuclear power plant is the threat of large-scale military operations: that is, roughly speaking, if a war breaks out and the plant is bombed. But this is beyond the horizon of assessed risks, no one is insured against this.”
